Brackley Jubilee Choir - Swan Song Concert
Saturday 7th June 2025
from 7.30pm
St Peter's Church, Brackley, NN13 7BB
This concert will be the final performance of the Brackley Jubilee Choir, and this event marks the culmination of 48 years of musical excellence and community engagement in Brackley, which began in 1977 when Eddie Palmer was the inspiration behind the formation of the Brackley Jubilee Choir for mixed voices, in honour of the late Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee celebrations.
Whilst the choir is both honoured and saddened to share the news of its farewell concert, this final concert provides the opportunity to express the heartfelt gratitude from the choir for the unwavering support we have enjoyed from our audiences over many years.
Under the direction of Nick Perry, at this concert the choir will perform a varied selection well known and beloved pieces that have resonated with audiences over the years. The full Summer Swan Song concert programme will feature an eclectic collection of choral music from madrigals to favourite anthems showcasing the capabilities and the dedication of our choir members – including some of whom are our founder members!!.
“This concert is not just a farewell; it’s a celebration of the friendships, experiences, and music we’ve shared,” said Chair, Auriel Warwick. Over the past 48 years the choir has built an enviable reputation of successfully performing a number of challenging sacred music, classical, modern and musical theatre concerts and during this time we have been fortunate to have performed with many local talented musicians and professional soloists, and we invite everyone to join us for an evening filled with joy, nostalgia, and beautiful harmonies.”
Thank you to those who have supported the choir over the years and join us as we take this final bow at Brackley Jubilee Choir and celebrate the power of music to bring people together.
Audience members are cordially invited to remain after the concert, when light refreshments will be served and everyone will have the opportunity to join choir members and share their favourite memories from past performances.
Tickets: £10.00 (£5.00 under 16’s) – are available at the door.
